抄録
<jats:p>We describe the use of a silicon waveguide for two-photon absorption measurements in an autocorrelator which achieved a peak-power average-power sensitivity of 1 (mW)2 at 1.56 μm wavelength and which was used to measure optical pulses generated by a mode-locked fiber ring laser. The experimental results agreed with a theoretical model of the two-photon-induced photocurrent generation inside the waveguide.</jats:p>
